ADDITIONAL EXAM STRATEGY QUESTIONS
1. The stock market crash of 1929 and the Great Depression that followed were caused, in
part, because so many investors blindly put their money into stocks they knew nothing
about. During the 1920s, it was often impossible for an investor to find out what a
corporation was planning to do with its money, who was running the corporation, and
many other vital things. Congress responded by passing the Securities Act of 1933, which
required a corporation to divulge more information about itself before it could seek
money for a new stock issue. What kind of law did Congress create?
Strategy: What is the question seeking? The question asks you which type of law Congress
created when it passed the 1933 Securities Act. What are the primary kinds of law?
Administrative law consists of rules passed by agencies. Congress is not a federal agency.
